My Hands Are My Heart 1991
For one of his early sculptures Orozco picked up a chunk of clay and pressed it with both hands to give it the form of the space between them. The clearly visible imprint preserves the impromptu moment of creation, what he has described as 'a gesture of spontaneity'. Orozco's use of regular brick factory clay, rather than a specialist sculptor's material, is typical of his penchant for the humble and everyday.
